I bought my GC at the absolute worst possible time, but I'm still happy.

- Black GameCube
- Free Metroid Prime
- Super Smash Bros + $10 off (Nintendo card promotion) for $19.95 all together
- Nyko Airflo controller
- 251 card
Total cost = $220
The clerk said, "I've sold a ton of these since we started this promotion"
Also, the PS2 gets a free game now too.

But the deals will only get better. Along the road the Gamecube will drop in price once again. They may not get rid of the free game promotion, if it does well enough they may extend it. And we will hear people who bought their now how they got ripped off. But I guess that is the way of the internet...

After I had it for a week, I was searching for more game reviews, prices, and etc. I somehow stumbled on this site(the old forum), found out about the deal, and felt like I got ripped off!
I went raging back to store and told them I'm returning mine and buying it back with a free new game. At first, the store clerk was like he can't do it, then I told him to get a manager and there! I got my GC back with a free Metroid Prime.
Even without the promotion, I would have paid for the full console price of $150(which I did) and also buy Metroid Prime for the full price of $50(it was just a matter of time, I really loved playing the demo).
I'm glad I found this site and saved $50, anyway that was my little story.

I'm confused about memory cards. Is the 51 the largest or the smallest?

Are you still confused?

Now it's the dead time of the year. NOW is when people need incentives/bargains to encourage them to spend. So Nintendo's timing was perfect.

It's a good idea for them to do this now instead of around christmas where it would impact them less on paper, but still...

What a bunch of sweet deals..
Post by: Mad Xenomorph on February 17, 2003, 11:08:13 AM
Meijers (a regional store) was selling the Gamecube for $99, and there was an additional 10% discount, so that night...
nYko 64MB card
Black Gamecube
~$110 after tax. Can't beat that!
AND, thanks to K-Mart going out of business:
Digital video cable: $2
Controller extension cord: $5
Yeah, no games bought yet, but there is always Blockbuster (and their Previously Played section if I REALLY like a game)
